Ming Kee Restaurant

A small quint restaurant in SF on Ocean Ave. The best roast duck I taste. Lunch plate around $10. Long line by11 AM. They usually closed on Wednesday but 2024. They will open Xmas and New Year. And closed on Thursday.

Ming Kee is a MUST-visit for anyone craving Cantonese meats. I absolutely love their char siu, princess chicken, and roast duck. Their char siu is perfectly caramelized--not too sweet or meaty. Their roast duck is the star of the show. Tender, not too fatty, and packed with flavor, the roast duck is perfect to eat with rice or noodles. Lastly, I am not a huge princess chicken person, but Ming Kee's princess chicken is flavorful and meaty. Make sure to get the garlic sauce with their princess chicken! In terms of ambiance, it isn't really a dine-in restaurant since they don't really have much seating. I always bring the food home. In terms of service, they are efficient and friendly. They can have long lines during holidays and weekends, but their line moves fast! Make sure to get there early before they run out of food!Highly, highly recommend!

one of the best Chinese BBQ in the area same taste and quality for years. price is also extremely reasonable take out of lunch box my favorite is their soy sauce chicken, hands down!

It was busy today. But no line. The chicken liver was available. The place is simply designed

I have been here before but this trip was mixed.Shopped here on a Sunday and lucked into a space just 1 spot East of the shop.This location does takeout , and I have never been disappointed with the BBQ Pork. This trip though my order included some Duck that made me very I'll, and was mostly bones under the top layer.Overall the service was okay, with the understanding of what are norms at Chinese meat shops.I will return but will limit myself to the BBQ Pork

Scored. No line. Having a holiday weekend means lots of people out of town, so the whole sf is accessible. The butcher is meticulous with chopping the meat. The lady owner was chastising him for having the empty containers too close to the scale that it falls on the scale to add weight to whatever being weighed. My little feast, a whole duck and a whole yellow steamed chicken. Duck was meaty at certain parts. Excellent for me since it is right amount salt. Kudos to the chopper. Each size the right bite. The chicken had the best onion%ginger condiment. Got a big and small condiment container of it. Green onions chopped just right. Damage was $57 for two boxes.

I came back as I said. The meat cuts were meatier this time and the service was outstanding. I received a hefty portion of cabbage as well.Credit card charges are only allowed for purchases $10 and up. There is no seating at the restaurant so ambiance cannot truly be described. However, I enjoy the experience speaking with the employees and cashier who truly know how good their food is! I regret not ordering more!

Mandatory Chinese bbq place checklist - meat hanging in the window shining from the heat lamps, line of old Chinese people grumbling while holding their bags of groceries some with newspapers, and a wall menu that looks like it hasn't been updated in years. Check check check. Worth the wait and the stress, especially if you don't speak Cantonese.

Hole in wall Chinese bbq limited to bbq pork and roast duck. No crispy skin roast pork here. Plate lunches about $14 with 25 cents charge for plastic bags. Is strictly takeout place without seating. On the weekends, couple of staff speak limited English. Menu is limited. I wouldn't say it was the best duck or bbq pork I've ever eaten but it's good for this neighborhood when you can't get to Chinatown or other areas. We got #2 and #7. The roast duck is good, fairly lean compared to other places with fatty duck and hardly meat. Chicken (served cold unless you want it nuked in the microwave) is nicely salted with a tasty scoop of green onion ginger sauce on the side but inside the container. The meats are tender and not dried out. I would consider returning if I wanted an entire chicken or duck for dinner. They're very generous with the rice with the takeout plates.

Best Chinese BBQ this side of town, if not the best. Decent price. A rice plate sets you back $12~ish +/-. My wife thinks so too. The chicken and duck are meaty and the pork is juicy. The BBQ pork neck is amazing! There's a reason why the line is long.
